Herkimer Crime

I had a DWI almost 2 years ago, reapplied for my license a year ago, had to pay 250 DRA and took the 10 week driver alcohol education classes in May of this year, the dmv is dragging their feet on releasing my driving privileges, they won't tell me why, can I sue them or can lawyer help me get my license back and my cdl class A as well, I don't know where to go with this and what to do next

It is not obvious why the DMV is dragging their feet on this, but it certainly is worth looking into. Your best bet...

Needless to say, i no longer drink. My problem is that a dwai here in ny is a traffic infarction and not a criminal charge. It is the same as a 0.4 breath test or any impairment. Fla dmv is using this dwai and counting it as a first offense. Can they do this? thank you

I am sorry to hear about your situation. You may wish to repost this in the Fl. forum. I wish you the best of luck....

He had serious personal injury and property damage! They took his BAC at the hospital, the state police took the blood and we have never got results, went to court, they did not take his license and have heard nothing! Well once again he was in another accident 3 1/3 months later, charged with aggravated DWI (BAC .19). Wrecked his new vehicle. Lawyer is obtained, but what is he facing and what can be done! He is starting AA classes this week and his court date is November 9th and he is facing the same judge!!!

His lawyer knows what he is facing. If you are unhappy with that attorney, tell him to hire a new one.

I had a DWAI conviction in 2008 and just (2013) received a failure to submit to a chemical test. I will be accepting a DWI charge. My understanding is if I have had a conditional lic in the past 5 years I can not get one following this charge. However, I have pulled my MVR and it only shows a hardship lic was issued and then my lic was fully restored after guilty plea to the first ticket. in 2008. Would my MVR show if a conditional lic was issued and because it does not am I eligible for one now?

If you refused a chemical test in 2013 and the administrative law judge makes that ruling at the refusal hearing, you...

My girlfriend was driving home through a small rural town when she was stopped by a Pennsylvania State Trooper, the troopers approached the vehicle and said that she had been swerving over the line. At which point he started to examine the car, then asked if we had anything they should know about on me, I said no sir and he went back to his car and ran the license/reg. When he returned he asked my girlfriend to step out and the other trooper asked me to step out also, he told me he saw my bowl in the car and wanted to search. I told the trooper there was pot in the back so I might get in less trouble. I had been arrested last summer for possession of more than 8 oz of marijuana in New York state, i'm just trying to figure out roughly what I'm facing here. Thanks for any help or advice all.

Re-post your question in the Pennsylvania section of Avvo under the practice are of "Criminal Defense." Also,...

My friend has a DUI charge and has to go to court again in April. He said he was lost and was driving around the same building several times. He got pulled over and issued a DUI as he was over the limit. He also has a Commercial Driving License. He has an appointed lawyer but he seems to have very little faith in her. What possible outcomes might he face?

With a CDL, any plea to any DWI or DWAI will mean loss of his CDL. He may have to go to trial! Your friend needs a...

First DWI arrest in 2003, but convicted in 2004 as DWAI Second arrest for Aggrevated DWI in 2009, but convicted for DWAI in 2011

You should talk to a local attorney that is familiar with handling licensing boards (law, medicine, dental, FDA, etc)...
